Landis - The Klan Tries to Rebuild its Shattered Image
August 25, 1979- Some Ku Klux Klansmen huddle nervously in a field at Bostian
and Old Beatty Ford Rd. in Landis. They shout at each other for two hours to build up
their image, which was shattered in China Grove. After seeing the coast is clear, they
flash their rifles and beat their chests. The most vicious poison drips from their lips.
They slander Jews as dirty and slimy. They say Black people "smell like billy goats."
One Klansman points to the darkness and says, "If there are any niggers down there
that comes up here, I'll put a bullet between their eyes. "
* * *
Just at a time when things are bad for all of us, when Black and White have more
reason than ever to unite, the Klan is trying to confuse us by telling us our problem
is each other. They are intensifying the conflict between different peoples in the working class, who are oppressed by the brutal system of capitalism,
SMASH THE KLAN WITH THE
CORRECT UNDERSTANDING AND
ARMED SELF-DEFENSE:
Historic Stand in China Grove
Shows How to Fight the Klan
Just a month and a half earlier,
the people of China Grove, along with
the Workers Viewpoint Organization,
chased these same scum Klansmen
off the lawn of the China Grove
Community Center. Armed with
pipes, bottles, sticks and
rifles, the people defended the China
Grove Community. They burned the
hated symbol of the Klansmen --their
confederate flags. Afte£_dese_rting -fc&eir
flags, these "brave Klansmen^jieietided
them by peeping out3t_lheL-is4ndow--as
the -njrgrPw^'t: np~Tnsrnoke.
Ebr weeks, the media and newspapers
had built up the Klan's showing of a
racist film, while afterward, in one
edition, they distorted the facts and
meaning of the people's heroic stand
against the Klan. Kicking the press
out of our ranks at the rally after the
demonstration was correct. The
bourgeoisie (rich capitalist class which
includes the Cannon, Cones, Dukes etc.)
uses many forms to disguise and maintain their rule. They use the newspapers
and media to make the Klan look strong
and the workers look weak.
